Detection and reconstruction of east asian layout features in a fixed format document

摘要

Detection of East Asian layout features and reconstruction of East Asian layout features is provided. Vertically written text in the fixed format document is detected and rotated for layout analysis. After layout analysis, the rotated text is rotated back and restructured in a flow format document. When a plurality of characters is written horizontally in a vertical line of text, vertically overlapping text runs are detected, designated as horizontal-in-vertical text, and are restructured as horizontal-in-vertical text in a flow format document. Lines of text are analyzed for attributes of a ruby line and are designated as ruby text, associated with corresponding text in a ruby base line, and restructured as ruby text in a flow format document. Text in a fixed format document is analyzed for detection of a particular East Asian language so that a font for the language is designated in a flow format document.
